Suggest Medication For Pain In The Arm

Hi! My mother had stretched her shoulder tendon and once diagnosed after an MRI, the doctor recommended that she take complete rest for a couple of months. She also took tendocare medicine. After a couple of months now her shoulder is much better and she is doing some light exercises. She has also resumed normal daily work. However, in one particular position of her arm (when she moves her arm upward while in bed) she has some pain. It is only in this one position that she experiences pain. Should she tale rest for another few weeks or should she continue with the exercises?

Hi there. thanks for your question.

All structures in our body have positions of eat or ease where we are most comfortable. Also we have positions of stretch where we experience pain.Tour mother is having pain in the particular position due to stretch of the tendon whcih she had injured before. It should not be a cause of concern and the easiest solution possible is to not keep her limb in that position. Over time once the tissue completely heals she will sure feel much better.

Hope this helps.
All the best.
With regards.
